Real Housewives of Brisbane star lists stunning six-bedroom mansion
Madden, who was cast in the axed Real Housewives of Brisbane spin-off, has not listed a price guide for the two-storey, six-bedroom property she shares with her husband, mining executive Jimmy Gwisai.
According to sales records, the median sale price for large upscale properties in Coorparoo, where the home is situated, is an impressive $2.5million
The couple's property, dubbed The Palms, is inspired by the architecture found in Florida around Palm Springs.
Highlights include a dazzling façade, stone archways, a pink blush front door and a private dining room that features a built-in 'wine wall' and spectacular chandelier.
There's also a curved staircase, terrazzo tiling, oak timber floors, a beautifully appointed 'media room' and a home office that can double as a bedroom.
The ground floor offers an open-plan layout combining an oversized kitchen and living space, which opens out to a covered patio and al fresco dining and pool area.
Other highlights include soaring three-metre ceilings and a master suite occupying an entire corner of the top floor, which also features a grand ensuite and dressing room.
Impressive 'classic' details are featured prominently in the appointments, including French doors and windows.
It comes after Madden, who runs the Ginsburg Advisory business brand, was all set to star in reality spin-off, The Real Housewives of Brisbane.
Announced in 2023, Foxtel dropped the Brisbane edition in favour of a second Sydney season.
Madden was to feature in a cast including couture designer Sonia Stradiotto and jewellery designer Jimena Alejandra.
Speaking to Adelaide Now at the time, Alejandra revealed that she was first approached in 2022.
Also interviewed for the story was Madden, who said that the network had plans to make the series different and less frivolous than its predecessors.
'They were specifically looking for businesswomen and women that had their own success, they were trying to make it different,' she told the publication in 2023.
It was earlier reported that The Real Housewives reality franchise would be moving to Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
According to The Courier Mail, suitable candidates living in Queensland's wealthiest postcodes were being sought out.
Producers had approached a number of high-profile women, and some reportedly declined the opportunity, opting to keep their lives private.

Paddy McGuinness looks downcast as he steps out after 'struggling to sell the £6.5million Cheshire mansion' he shares with wife Christine
Paddy McGuinness cut a glum figure after it was revealed ex wife Christine are reportedly struggling to sell their £6.5million Cheshire mansion. The comedian and presenter, 51, was seen stepping out of his brand new £163,000 BMW on Sunday morning. Paddy looked uncharacteristically downcast as he paid up at a parking meter in Manchester. He wore a light grey boxy T-shirt with colour matched cargo trousers and a pair of white and cream trainers. Paddy's appearance comes amid claims that he and Christine have generated 'very little interest' in their property in the five months since it went on sale, with one source describing it as overpriced - even for the upmarket area it's based in. The couple separated in June 2022 but have continued to live together in the house for the sake of their three children, who are all autistic. The Mail On Sunday reported in March that Christine was left 'fuming over the price tag' of the home as she believed he inflated the price so it doesn't sell. A source told The Sun on Wednesday that Christine is 'unhappy' and wants to move out. They also told the publication: 'It's a lovely house with all mod cons in a fantastic location but there's been very little interest. 'It's the most expensive house in Prestbury on Rightmove but it appears the market's a bit flat right now.' Representatives for Paddy and Christine have been contacted by MailOnline for comment. In March Christine was left furious after husband Paddy put their marital home on the market for the £6.5million price as she believed he inflated the price so it doesn't sell. Her friends at the time feared that she would have to continue living with the former Top Gear host for 'the foreseeable future' because buyers will be put off by the cost of it - which is a staggering £4.4million more than what they paid for it in 2020. 'It is so overpriced, Paddy doesn't want to sell which seems like another tactic by him. 'It's insane that Paddy would put the house on the market for that much, they only bought it five years ago and house prices have hardly gone up at all since then,' said an insider familiar with McGuinnesses. 'The house is on for two thirds more than what they paid for it, it will never sell. It all feels a bit like Paddy wanting to control the situation and keep Christine living in the house with him for longer. 'Christine made it clear that she can't live with him anymore but now it looks like she will have to for a long time yet.' In an interview with the Daily Mail's Weekend Magazine, Paddy recently discussed his living situation with Christine and intimated the pair would continue staying under the same roof. He said: 'Yeah, still the same. It doesn't feel tricky. I think it would if you lived in a toxic household - God forbid.' Asked how their unique living arrangement works, Paddy added: 'If I'm at home with the kids it's great. 'If I'm working and Christine is at home with the kids, that's great. 'If we are there together, that's fine. As long as my children are happy, that's all that matters to me.' Its seven bedrooms have six en suite bathrooms and the house has been described by estate agents handling the sale as 'tailor made for hosting family and friends'. Paddy, 51, is hoping to make a £4.4million profit after purchasing the home for £2.1million back in 2020. He and Christine spent months renovating the property before moving in to cater for the needs of their young family. The mansion features its own gym, a huge kids playroom containing soft play equipment, his and hers dressing rooms, an orangery and a kitchen diner.

The Voice Australia fans react with fury over 'criminal' decision from Seven bosses as the new season premieres
The Voice Australia was back for 2025 on Sunday night with a new judging panel. British former Spice Girls singer Mel C joins UK singer Ronan Keating and American crooner Richard Marx this year. The only Aussie on the panel is Kate Miller-Heidke, who is also the only judge to return from the 2024 season. Last year's coaches Adam Lambert, Guy Sebastian, and LeAnn Rimes have all departed the series in favour of a fresh line-up. However, not everyone was impressed with the changes, with several fans of the show sharing their concerns about the lack of Australians represented on the judging panel. 'It will take a few days maybe to warm up to these judges. Sorry to say, last year's season was fun to watch,' one person wrote on X. 'Missed opportunity not getting Shannon Noll as a coach… having one Aussie coach is criminal,' someone else said. 'Given there's only one Aussie judge this year, I'm guessing the judges were picked by Albo's Labor Party,' one more posted. 'Just tuned in... only one in four judges is Aussie, that sucks,' yet another viewer chimed in. 'No offence… but I feel like the quality of Aussie reality TV has gone down… I wasn't wowed like past seasons… usually the premiere gets me hooked,' one more said. 'Does anyone even care about #TheVoiceAU ??? How low down the list of potential judges did they have to go to get Richard Marx?' said someone else. 'This show is missing Guy Sebastian and Jess Mauboy and a bit of drama…' one more wrote, referring to judges from earlier seasons. Others liked what they saw, with one person commenting: 'Actually Richard Marx is probably one of the biggest names to ever join #TheVoiceAU team as a judge.' Someone else said: 'Great start to the new season.' Not everyone was impressed with the changes, with several fans of the show sharing their concerns about the lack of Australians represented on the judging panel - but others were happy with the new panel Guy Sebastian sensationally quit The Voice Australia last year. The Australian Idol winner shared the lengthy shock announcement on Instagram across several black and white slides. He began by congratulating the 2024 winner, Reuben De Melo, before detailing how he came to his dramatic decision. 'I have some news to share with you all regarding my role as a Voice coach,' he began. 'I have made the decision to take a break from the best red chair on the planet,' Guy continued. 'It's been six amazing years as a coach and it's honestly been the best gig ever! 'I have nothing but good things to say about the show itself, and sharing the panel with such amazing coaches has been a pleasure.'
